     If you have OS X installed ppcrcd should detect it and create mount point,
 so you only have to mount it:

     And use fwcutter:

 Looks like <_<ifup>_> wasn't waiting enough for authentication, before
 dhcpcd/pump start. Problem is not resolved yet, but doing everything maually
 it works.

+newer kernel for better support.
